Currently I'm reading David Deida's "The way of the superior man" and he writes about the importance of a purpose for a man which illustrates how i feel about my life pretty much every day.
In chapter 11 he writes that a man without purpose is totally lost and drifting in life adapting to events rather than creating them or being in control. Without a life purpose, a man lives a weakened impotent existence.
He goes on to say that everything in your life must be aligned to your purpose (diet, career, choices) and that not not knowing your purpose or deepest desire, you are dissociated from your core and in everything that you do in life their is an underlying emptiness and you are just going through the motions not living to your true purpose.
So my question is to those who have discovered their purpose:
How did you discover your purpose? Did you meddle in many different things until you found it or did you ultimately always know deep down what your purpose was and live to it.
I feel that 99%+ of people go through life drifting and uncertain and only a handful realise and live to their true selves.
I would appreciate all insight
Thankyou
